Angry Universal Studio executives are vowing to track down those responsible for circulating a bootlegged version of The Hulk on the internet more than a week before the film's premiere on June 20.

The unauthorised, early version of the #100 million big-screen adaptation of Marvel Comics' story of the giant green anti-hero is being criticised by fans for its poor computer-generated effects.

But Universal says the bootlegged version of the Ang-Lee directed film starring Eric Bana as the Hulk's alter-ego Dr Bruce Banner, Jennifer Connelly and Nick Nolte, is an unfinished product and does not reflect the film's final special effects.

Thanks to modern technology, Ol' Blue Eyes is back in concert.

Frank Sinatra, who died in 1998 will "perform" at New York's Radio City Musical Hall in October in Sinatra: His Voice, His World, His Way, the first Sinatra retrospective to be sanctioned by his family.

Three-dimensional images projected on giant screens will make it appear as if the late crooner is moving and singing his old hits, reports USA Today. He will be backed by a 40-piece orchestra, a choir and the Radio City Rockettes.

Chris Noth, who for five years has played the dashing Mr Big in Sex And The City, is trying to shed that image by taking roles radically different from the big-city bachelor.

"Right now, I'm at work dismantling that whole image," Noth told the New York Daily News. "I don't want to go down as Mr Big. It becomes like a cartoon after a while. I want to move on."

Part of his transition includes donning a toga to star in a television film, Caesar, about the Roman leader, and will also play an FBI agent in the film Bad Apple.
